Self awareness is not a tool for beating yourself up with

Self awareness is not a tool to use and beat ourselves up with.

But rather, self awareness is a tool for change and compassion.

Trusting yourself with your decisions

What if you knew that you can only make one decision at a time…

And that you trust yourself to make a decision, knowing that you can't make a wrong decision...

And you trust in your ability to re-calibrate, learn, and embrace any and all outcomes.

And make decisions from a place of trust, instead of fear.

Slow down and grow

You're allowed to slow down.

It doesn't make you less worthy.

And that imaginary peak you're trying to beat everyone to? It's actually in the now.

In how you invite yourself to be in the moment.

Like a 100 year old tree with a trunk so large you can't wrap your arms around it, you too, can slow down and grow.

Instead of getting rid of your emotions, try this

Uncomfortable emotions are not the enemy.

And if you feel scared, anxious, stressed, or have any uncomfortable strong emotions… congratulations, you are human!

Our job is not to get rid of these emotions from our lives.

Our job is to understand them.

To embrace them.

And ultimately, to accept and love ourselves even when (especially when) we are feeling uncomfortable.

Reclaim how you navigate rest

It's actually that society has conditioned us to think that rest is a bad, awful thing to do.

That rest is weak.

That we have to EARN our rest as a reward for something else (ie. I'll work hard Monday - Friday and rest on the weekend).

That we are unproductive if we rest (and our worth is linked to our productivity), so therefore resting makes us unworthy.

How to shift limiting beliefs

It's not that you lack confidence, courage or self worth.

It's that you grew up in a system that made you constantly have to prove yourself to other people than feel innately worthy as you are.

It's that since you were young, you were trained to seek the approval of others instead of approving yourself.

It's that society reinforces the idea that you should stay small, be quiet, and not cause trouble… so then owning your power feels unsafe.

Stop looking outwards and tune inwards

You are not lacking courage, confidence or wisdom.

You don't need to go out there and find it under a tree.

It's inside of you.

How to GROW and SCALE your business using mindfulness

I get asked this question a lot.

Let me tell you how...

I'm not here to give you an ABC blueprint on what you need to post, when, where and how. Or why you need to this ONE be all end all strategy 🙅‍♀️ Strategy is important, but only when it ALIGNS to you.

But here is what I do offer in my work as a mindfulness coach to entrepreneurs:

Are you a reactor or creator?

I stopped REACTING.

Instead, I slowed down and tuned inward.

I used all of my tools and knowledge to connect and understand myself more deeply.

This foundation gave me opportunities for clarity.

Ideas, not from external sources, but from within me started to come.

Wisdom presented itself when I let myself listen.

Don't wait for someone else to tell you who you are

Believe it or not, I wasn't always comfortable or confident in myself.

Growing up as a first generation Canadian to Vietnamese refugees, and survivors of war, was both beautiful and complex.

Over the years as I delved deeper into building a relationship with myself, I started to bring awareness to how much of my behaviour and mindset had been conditioned to “always fit in”.
